-kOoLiNuS-

Italian comics, science fiction, motorcycles and computer geek, born in 1974. On-line since 1996, with this kOoLiNuS nickname since 1999. I've started blogging on kOoLiNuS.net in Feb. 2003. Two years later I started in english with /home/kOoLiNuS. Then social networks came and blossomed.

I work as a sys-admin in a bio-tech institute of Italy's National Council of Research, sometimes doing some extra ICT work as a freelancer.

I then tried to install manually the various dependencies, like XML. Still no luck. After a quick Google search I found that I was missing a couple of -dev packages on my Ubuntu machine, so I installed them:

root@server:~# apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libxml2-dev

… and then re-tried to install DESeq2. This time everything was ok. Problem solved!

Sometimes I find myself in the situation of having to lauch some graphical software like synaptic, gedit, baobab while already using the server as root from the command line. I do not want to ‘exit’ my session and use the previous methods of which I’ve written in the past.

The Ubuntu team is very pleased to announce the release of Ubuntu 13.10 for Desktop, Server, Cloud, Phone, and Core products.

Codenamed “Saucy Salamander”, 13.10 continues Ubuntu’s proud tradition of integrating the latest and greatest open source technologies into a high-quality, easy-to-use Linux distribution. The team has been hard at work through this cycle, introducing new features and fixing bugs.

Ubuntu 13.10 introduces the first release of Ubuntu for phones and Ubuntu Core for the new 64-bit ARM systems (the “arm64″ architecture, also known
as AArch64 or ARMv8), and improved AppArmor confinement. In addition to these flagship features there are also major updates throughout.

Ubuntu Server 13.10 includes the Havana release of OpenStack, alongside deployment and management tools that save devops teams time when
deploying distributed applications – whether on private clouds, public clouds, x86 or ARM servers, or on developer laptops. Several key server
technologies, from MAAS to Ceph, have been updated to new upstream versions with a variety of new features.

Maintenance updates will be provided for Ubuntu 13.10 for 9 months, through July 2014.
